Although I've used this hand vac only a few times, it seems to have very good suction. I like several of the "extras"--the fact that both "attachments" are permanently "attached to the vac--so easy to use them. Like that a light is on when the battery is charging but wish there was a way to know when the battery is fully charged. I've wanted to order several fabric filters to have on hand before they are actually needed. But finding out what the correct part number has been almost impossible. Why can't the filter part numbers be printed in the instruction booklet. Most everyone needs to order them so why not just make a note of the numbers. It's nice to have the phone number for customer service but if the filter part numbers were printed in the booklet--or easier to find on the website, customers could buy the filters through the website without a call to customer service. So I will have to call CS. But overall, I think this was a smart purchase. Thank you.

Good suction, but......

The new Dustbusters have more suction than the older ones, but they also have some serious flaws. The nozzle is much narrower, which probably accounts for the greater suction, but it makes for more passes when vacuuming up a mess. The angle at which you must hold the nozzle is much closer to straight up and down than with the older ones and seems very awkward. The flip down brush on the end of the nozzle is next to useless. You cannot push the unit forward with the brush down - there's simply too much resistance. It only works well if you pull the vacuum towards you. The biggest issue is that Black and Decker has done away with the on-the-wall charging rack. You must now plug the charger into the handle of the Dustbuster each time you hang it up. The ugly cord is right there dangling over the unit for the world to look at. And, of course, each time you go to use it you have to remember to unplug the cord before you remove the vacuum. Over all, it's a big step backwards from the older models.

Nozzle has multiple sizes and uses

Posted 12/11/2013

The nozzle has an extension which is more narrow to fit into tight spaces. You can push that narrow extension back in to make the nozzle large enough to match older varieties only with far more suction than before. Either way it can get into corners as well as underneath places you can't reach without the built-in extensions which can be pulled in or out in a moment. If you have a large mess covering a big area a full-size vacuum would do the job faster if multiple passes are too difficult for you. The built-in brush can easily swing into place to dust wood furniture without scratching as well as on cloth areas to thoroughly clean with brushing motions. It is a valuable tool, but you don't have to use it if you aren't dusting things that you wish to keep scratch-free. The brush feature also swings away with ease in seconds. Great product with many uses. Well built, easy to clean. Very versatile too!

Like many people, this is about the fourth cordless vac that I have had. Usually they are Black and Decker. So this replaces the one I had. I like the extension on the end. It "locks" in place. The little brush is fine, and I actually like the way it is handy to flip up and down. You don't expect the brush to be expensively made at this price.I followed the directions!!! I let it charge for 24 hours and then let it run all the way down (more than 15 minutes use and then left it on) before recharging. So the battery seems to be quite good.The only thing I don't understand is why the wall bracket is now made so that you have to manually plug the charging end into the unit. The previous ones were built so all you had to do was slide them back onto the wall mount and they charged. This one has to be plugged in. It is not a hugely difficult thing to do. I just don't understand why the design was changed to require this extra step.Overall, I like it. Just wish I didn't have to manually plug it in to charge.

I purchased this unit to clean out my car since the crevices are too small to handle the commercial car vacs they have at gas stations. Let me tell you this beast gets into almost every nook and cranny and gets the job done. Yes the nozzle is small and makes for more time spent on large areas such as the floor and seats but the power lasts a good 20 minutes. Just be sure to charge the unit 24+ hours before using and let it totally die out after first use, as per the manual so you can get this long run time. It is very loud but thats due to the power. Have used it around the house for small messes as well. The brush is nice to clean HVAC grilles and keyboards. I also ran it over the curtains and couches until it dies. It picked up alot of fine dust. Totally recommended. I just wish it had a wide mouth attachment.

I bought it to vac. the floor of my car and it is perfect for the purpose I bought it for. I was reluctant about buying it, I didn't know if it was the right way to go, it turned out to be a good choice. It has sufficient power and is easy to handle.

Very nice unit from Black and Decker !

Well to start with I read the owners manual ! You don't just start using it right out of the box. It has to charge 24 hrs MINIMUM before first usage! I went 48 hrs. On first use my Wife went thru the whole house and I cleaned my laptop, was more than 20 mins run time! Then left it running till dead, AS PER THE OWNERS MANUAL!, The intake is larger than it looks in the pictures, The pull out extension is very handy and it does not collapse back in if you pull it out till it locks! again AS PER THE OWNERS MANUAL!. The flip down brush does a great job of cleaning dust from computer vent grills. OH yes when you take a break and sit the unit on a table it just sits there on its legs, dosnt roll off and crash to the floor. This unit replaced Our old B-D that had the large wall mount. I find the small wall mount is a space saver , and the charger coard attaches nicely into it. I have yet to tire my fingers out by putting the charger plug into the charging port! All in all a very good value for the money, as expected from BLACK AND DECKER. Also the angle which you hold it at is aprox 45 degrees not flat down!Jon H.

Perfect for cleaning up after toddlers

I purchased this cordless hand vacuum primarily to clean up my car and daughter's car seat. The first time I used this vacuum after charging for the recommended 24 hours, the battery lasted about 25 minutes. The instructions suggested to run down the battery completely during the first use. I vacuumed my daughter's car seat, and my entire car and the battery was still going strong.I like this lightweight model, and that it can be opened up and easily cleaned. There are no replacement bags or filters that you have to purchase. It has an extending tool that works great for getting into tight spots. The vacuum power is as powerful as my full size vacuum.It is loud, but it does a great job. I'm hopeful that this product will continue to perform well.

I have always liked Black & Decker Dustbusters. The ones I have used in the past were with a wider mouth allowing more room to suction messes with one or two swipes. This one is only two inches across at the mouth so I was concerned when I first purchased it, but the powerful suction it has compensates for this in my opinion. Takes a bit more time to clean up a pile of dirt, but it is the only con I have found. It is a great product for light housekeeping and is easy to open and empty dirt into the trash as well as clean. It does not disappoint.

I received this for Christmas from my brother last year and use it almost daily. My kitchen tends to get messed up more than any other room in the house, so I often sweep up the debris and use my little vac to suck it all up daily for a quick clean up. Very powerful and easy to clean out.

My old Dustbuster finally gave out after 10 years. After reading reviews, I decided to get this model as a replacement. I was pleasantly surprised at how much more powerful it is compared to my old one. Plus the charge holds for a very long time.

Great Suction + Battery Lasts

I like to read the 1 and 2 star reviews and they often scare me away from a product but I made an exception with this hand vac because returning it to Walmart instead of by mail is convenient. I was happy with the suction and after leaving it running for 10 minutes to test the battery I turned it off because I wouldn't be using it longer than that at a time. Cleanup is easy, I like to clean it after each use.

This is a replacement for a Black and Decker that we have had in service since the mid Eighties. It finally died. I had seen the Vac on Walmart site and went to Black and Decker and found the first place it was available was Walmart. A quick study on the spec's and I called the store and they didn't stock it locally and went right back to the Walmart site and ordered it. Came in and plugged it in for 24 hours and went right to work cleaning all the crumbs around our kitchen and it was sucking things up before I got to them. Haven't really wore the battery down enough to recharge. Excellent unit, and long lasting battery life.

I am an agent for Penske Truck Rental and use this Hand-Vac many times on a daily basis in cleaning truck cabs. The suction power is great, charge holds very well, easy to empty and clean filter. The long slender nozzle and extension makes it easy to get into tight areas and under the seats. I liked this Hand-Vac so well... I purchased another for home use and family auto's.

I bought this vac as a Christmas gift for my mom. Her and I both love it. It does not have to hang or click into a mounted port. You just plug it in to any outlet to charge. It is very versatile and does not need additional attachments to reach "tiny areas." The nozzle extends, and the brush attachment flips over when needed and the vac rotates. The filter and filter cover are washable so no need for replacements. The collection area is translucent making it very easy to see when the vac needs to be emptied. Emptying the collection area is a breeze. This is a very well designed vac. I will definitely buy another one day.
